Fans of “Little People, Big World” express concerns over the safety of Audrey Roloff’s children, particularly after seeing a photo of her older kids playing in the woods. Let’s find out if their worries were justified this time.
Audrey Roloff, like many reality TV personalities, attracts criticism from fans who closely monitor her children’s activities to ensure they are not engaging in dangerous behavior, such as riding ATVs without helmets or getting too close to fires. While some people living in rural areas may disagree that the children are in danger, discussions on social media often lean towards the concerns of TLC critics.
One of the reasons Audrey Roloff draws criticism is her frequent posting of her kids on social media. Naturally, the more she showcases her children online, the more critics she tends to attract. However, it’s likely that she heavily relies on her status as a social media influencer to earn money.
When Audrey Roloff shared a photo of her three older kids playing in the woods, some TLC fans became worried. In the caption, she expressed how the simple act of being in nature fascinated her children:
“It’s truly amazing what some trees and a dried-up creek will do for them though…So simple, and yet it’s their favorite thing to do.”
One fan on Reddit circled some plants in the photo where Audrey Roloff’s kids were playing and expressed alarm, suggesting it might be poison oak. However, other fans in the comments reassured them, mentioning that the plants in question were more likely Himalayan blackberry bushes, which are common in the Pacific Northwest. Some fans did suggest that Audrey should check the children for ticks when they returned home from playing in the woods.
Here are a few comments from “Little People, Big World” fans:
- “Clearly not an Oregonian, that is not poison oak.”
- “Oh, they should be worried about ticks. The Valley is full of them.”
- “We live in a place that has ticks, seems to be on and off each year how bad, and we still allow our kids to play in the woods. However, they are checked head to toe (even when not playing in the woods) when they come back inside at night.”
- “Himalayan blackberry, not native, but it’s all over the Northwest.”
- “Blackberries are crazy and take over everywhere in the Pacific Northwest. The wild varieties can get some pretty big leaves and are very thorny.”
In summary, fans of “Little People, Big World” expressed concerns about Audrey Roloff’s children playing in the woods after she shared a photo on social media. While some fans worried about potential dangers like poison oak, others reassured them that the plants were likely Himalayan blackberry bushes. The discussion also touched on the need to check the children for ticks, considering their outdoor activities.
